Welcome Paul! I logged on just a bit ago. I've gone to one of the Dr. Pinnar's meetings. Was planning on having a doc in VA do my surgery, but he moved to Seattle. I'm having surgery this Mon. but in Maryland, Dr. Greene.

I haven't written much on this site. Read quite a bit. Soooooo much info is out there, here. I've been researching lapband for almost 3 yrs. Finally, moving forward. Lucky enough with my insurance paying the way.

Keep viewing, and glad you're doing the lapband.

Hey Paul,

It's great to have another Y chromosome here at LBT. Where in VA are you? I used to live in Richmond.

I am new here. I got my band in May/2003. I originally lost 75 pounds but since December of 2004 I put about 10 pounds back on, I am so glad I found you guys because I am struggling to stay on track. I have continued in the last 6 months to lose and gain the same 8 pounds over and over again. Just bad food choices, and giving in to children wanting fast food. Anyway I am so glad I found all of you because when I got my band, I had trouble finding much support.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
